New York New York , Macy's annual 4th of July fireworks be taking place this weekend in New York City. The fireworks display will once again take place along the East River.

This year's 25-minute musical score for the fireworks celebration will feature both classic and patriotic favorites, including new songs that were written for the show.

The fireworks will be taking place from two main locations. A double barge will be just south of Brooklyn Bridge, and four additional barges will be placed between East 23rd and East 42nd Streets. The additional barges will allow good viewing Brooklyn, Long Island City and Midtown East.

The iconic 4th of July fireworks display will be set off from the Brooklyn Bridge and from barges in the water below. The best viewing spots will be from Brooklyn Bridge Park, Brooklyn Heights Promenade, and along the east side of Lower Manhattan.

Public viewing sections for those who will be viewing from Manhattan will be the elevated portions of FDR drive.

The show is free for spectators, but visitors are advised to arrive by 5 p.m. ET to get a good spot.
